Information about internet resources goes out of date so quickly! I think this book might've been better off as a series of blog posts, where updates could be made more easily.
Overall, it's a good overview of your options for selling your clutter, but sadly, the options that were "new" to me are already defunct in the world.
After reading another book by Donna Smallin Kuper, I decided I would try to stay with her and read this book. Well, this book was about selling, not so much about decluttering. And I see a lot of reviews that are criticizing that. But, um, read the title. The assumption is you've already decided which parts of the clutter your going to get rid of and what you're going to sell. This book just suggests ways in which to do that.
The only problem I have with the book, was trying to find it on Amazon. Now that I'm trying to write a review. It didn't seem to be in my purchases, and when you do a click within good reads on this copy, it takes you to Amazon's home page. Okay, there were some grammar and editing issues in the book that I obtained for free. I assume that this new edition that you can find on Amazon for $4.99 is really edited and better than the one I have. So if you need some suggestions on how to sell your stuff, this is the book for you.
I guess you could say this book is about decluttering in some round about kind of way. It doesn't actually talk much about decluttering. What it is filled with is useful information on how to sell and find a market for things that you no longer use or care for. I thought this author did a good job of offering ideas for how to make money on items you no longer want. This book has quite a few ideas on places where you might be able to sell your unwanted stuff and the different ways to do so. I found this book to be informative and easy to follow and thin others would find it helpful as well. If your garage is a nightmare and you don't even remember where you got half of the stuff you own, this might be a very useful addition to your personal library.
I received thi book in the Goodreads Giveaway and I am glad I won. Great information that will definitely help once I am ready to sell my books, CDs, movies, Etc. I recommend reading this book! It is chalk full of great information and the author explains all the different ways to declutter and how to make money on the side whether online or through other means.
Awesome book! Thanks Good Reads for giving this book to me in the giveaways and thanks Donna Smallin Kuper for writing an excellent tool and book.
I highly recommend this book for anyone it is very easy to do thanks to Donna great explaination. For obvious reasons I wanted this book but need some help to get started. Thank you Donna for giving me a starting point. Definte must read.
I received this book free of charge from the Goodreads author and am not bound in anyway to give a postive recommendation.
Quick and easy read. Very informative with great ideas on how to make money with the items that are cluttering up your home. The step-by-step instructions on how to sale on eBay, amazon, & Craigslist are outstanding, The fact that I was able to download this for FREE was even better.
More about the best ways to make money on your clutter, rather than how to actually de-clutter - but that aside, there were some very helpful tidbits - even for this seasoned eBay/Craigslist/charity donating gal.
This is a good book for January for all those turn-over-a-new-leaf, THIS-year-I'm-gettin'-on-top-of-things type of folks. The title misleads -- it's the many ways of selling, not the de-cluttering per she that she covers. I found it enormously informative.
